Wu Tongfa, commander of the 114th fleet, had a flash of pain in his eyes. But the look of pain was quickly concealed by him.

"Stick where you are, I would rather die... than retreat!"

Firepower Point No. 9 corresponds to a very huge lava lake. It is estimated that there are more than 5 lava beasts active in the lava lake.

Relying on the lava lake, the lava beasts launched a fierce attack on the human fleet in the corresponding part, trying to open a gap from here and break through the human fleet's fire network. Afterwards, they can rely on this to disrupt the formation of the human fleet and thus take the initiative in the battle.

The human side is obviously aware of this intention of the lava beasts. As a result, this part has become the focus of competition between the two sides.

One side is trying its best to attack, and the other is trying its best to suppress.

The responsibility of Wu Tongfa's fleet is to stick to the No. 9 firepower point.

But facing the desperate attack of the lava beasts, his fleet had already suffered huge casualties. He asked for support from the rear, but he did not expect that not only would there be no support, but his own side would have to continue to hold on.

Then stick to it!

The expressions of the soldiers were numb, as if they had lost the fear of death and the sadness of their comrades dying in battle.

Fierce fighting continues. Two days later, Tan Jinlong received a message from Wu Tongfa.

"Commander, the position is about to be lost, and we are no longer able to hold on."

The next moment, communication was interrupted. And obviously this is not an active disconnection, but a forced disconnection.

This means that the battleship Wu Tongfa was on was most likely destroyed.

114 fleets have been completely wiped out.

Tan Jinlong's eyes were still cold, showing no emotion at all. He picked up the communicator and said coldly: "Sixty-six fleets are stationed at firepower point 66. Be sure to maintain fire suppression."

"Yes."

Firepower Point No. 9 has become a meat grinder, both for lava beasts and humans.

The importance of Firepower Point No. 9 makes it impossible for the human side to give up. However, the overall battlefield situation prevented Lu Xinghe from deploying more combat power.

If that's the case... then take human life to pay for it.

Treat people and warships as consumables, use them to fill this meat grinder, and use them to delay time until the overall battlefield situation changes.

Luo Hongshan, commander of the 66th fleet, knew this situation very well.

This is a fatal mission. When the order from superiors was received, the fate of all officers and soldiers of the 66 fleets was already doomed.

But he still didn't hesitate at all. Preparations began immediately after receiving the order.

The captains and soldiers under him also did not hesitate at all.

66 fleets rushed to Firepower Point No. 9.

Half a month later, Tan Jinlong received the last message from Luo Hongshan.

"We are no longer able to hold on. It is expected that our entire army will be annihilated within one day. Please send a follow-up fleet to take over."

"receive."

Tan Jinlong whispered, remained silent for two seconds, and then said in a deep voice: "Goodbye."

"Goodbye."

Ending the call, he issued another order.

"245 fleets are stationed at Firepower Point No. 9, and fire suppression must be maintained."

"Yes."

After 245 fleets, there are 339 fleets, and then 189 fleets...

Fleet after fleet was thrown into this meat grinder by the commanders as fuel, consumables, and consumables. No matter how fierce the lava beast's attack was and how many troops were invested in this direction, it was never able to open a gap.

The brutal battle continued like this for more than two years. Faced with the fearless lava beasts, and the waves of attacks that seemed to never stop, the human system was not chaotic at all, did not take a step back, and accepted all the attacks no matter how many.

Han Yang was amazed by the fighting will of the soldiers.

I thought that without my secret support, it would be very difficult to complete my overall plan by relying solely on people's flesh and blood to fight. Not only is it difficult, it is also very likely to fail completely.

But Han Yang had no choice, and neither did Civilization. Faced with this dead situation, he could only do this.

But now, the tenacity shown by the soldiers made Han Yang more confident.

"As long as such a civilization has enough time to develop, who can defeat it?"

The brutal battle continues. One day later, after another wave of fierce attacks was repelled by humans, and they still maintained strong suppression of Planet 1, maintaining fierce offensive firepower and rapid killing, people began to prepare to welcome the lava beasts. The next wave of attacks - hasn't it been like this for the past few years?

Wave after wave, the attacks from the lava beasts never stop.

But... things seem to be different this time.

After this wave of attacks was repelled, the lava beasts seemed to suddenly become quiet.

The hail of bullets from the planet's near-Earth space and the surface stopped simultaneously at this moment. The entire planet returned to silence in an instant, and there was no sign of any lava beasts on the surface.

Just like this planet is just an ordinary planet.

All the remaining lava beasts burrowed deep into the ground.

The soldiers looked at each other.

At the headquarters, Commander Lu Xinghe suddenly stood up, a flash of excitement in his eyes.

Has this day... finally come?

"we won!"

"The mid-term strategy is complete!"

At this moment, unspeakable excitement appeared on the faces of the soldiers, the logistics personnel, the captains and commanders of all sizes, which seemed to have been frozen by numbness and coldness.

At this moment, countless people began to cheer, countless people began to shout, and countless people hugged each other tightly.

After several years of unrelenting fighting, several years of fierce fire suppression and massive killings, the human fleet's fighting will finally comprehensively and completely overwhelmed the lava beasts.

At this moment, the lava beast, known for its fierce fighting and fearlessness of death, became afraid, frightened, and evaded!

After paying the price of killing more than 30 lava beasts, the remaining lava beasts finally did not dare to fight with humans!

At this moment, some people from the Luotu civilization who were secretly paying attention to the situation on the battlefield couldn't help but start to marvel.

No matter the level of technology, the combat power of the battleships, no matter what, just speaking of the will to fight, these humans... are probably at the forefront in the entire galaxy!

This small third-level civilization is really amazing...

Subsequent exploration showed that all remaining lava beasts had penetrated into the planet's underground at this moment.

Lava beasts already have the talent for digging holes. Otherwise, they would not be able to penetrate the earth's crust and dig out the magma deep beneath the planet.

At this moment, they have penetrated dozens or even thousands of kilometers below the surface of the earth, using the thick planetary rock formations as cover and armor to hide there.

Subsequently, the human fleet began to bombard the surface of Planet 1 indiscriminately, even flattening the mountains. But the lava beast hiding deep in the ground still refused to come out, as if it was cheating.

Under Lu Xinghe's order, super-large-yield hydrogen bombs also began to be thrown at the planet for free.

In normal battles, hydrogen bombs are almost impossible to deliver to the surface of the planet because they are too large and bulky. At this moment, all the lava beasts are hiding, so there is naturally no obstacle.

Mushroom clouds rose into the sky one after another. Under the continuous bombardment of hydrogen bombs, almost all the continental plates of Planet 1 were blown to pieces. Almost endless earthquakes and volcanoes began to erupt, and the geological activities of the entire planet became active.

But even so, those lava beasts hidden deep underground still refused to come out.

No matter how powerful the hydrogen bomb is, it is still too weak compared to the entire planet, and it is almost impossible to affect hundreds or thousands of kilometers underground.

Hidden underground, even if the surface of the planet is turned upside down, you can sleep peacefully.

We can't beat you humans. We won't fight. We will hide and see what else you can do!

Faced with this almost rogue tactic, there really is no good solution for the third-level civilization. But it doesn't matter, this was originally part of Lu Xinghe's mid-term strategy.

The main strategic goal of the mid-term strategy is to drive all the lava beasts into the underground of the planet without daring to come out.

Now that this goal has been achieved, it’s time for post-strategy.

At this moment, on satellite No. 43, after more than ten years of hard work by hundreds of millions of engineers and workers, more than 30 planetary thrusters have been built and work has begun.

In the vast space, on one side of Satellite 43, more than 30 beams of light pointed directly into space, like more than 30 sharp swords.

Affected by the powerful thrust of the planetary thruster, the entire planet has truly entered the peak period of geological activity. There are volcanoes, frequent earthquakes, and even the appearance of the entire planet has undergone certain changes.

It is no longer a sphere, but begins to flatten into an ellipsoid, like a balloon being squeezed.

However, because the subsequent impact has been taken into consideration at the beginning of construction, the more than 30 planetary thruster bases and supporting fusion power plants have not been affected much.

The few that are damaged will be repaired immediately.

This satellite, which has a mass of about 26% of the moon, is propelled by more than 30 planetary thrusters, and its orbit around Planet 4 has become increasingly flatter.

Finally, when it reached the highest point of its orbit, Satellite No. 43 broke away from the gravitational field of Planet No. 4 and began to fly toward the inner star system according to the orbit expected by humans.

More than 30 planetary thrusters have not stopped working and are still exerting huge thrust on them. As a result, the speed of this planet is getting faster and faster.

However, according to the current orbit calculation, in three years, Satellite No. 3 will reach the orbit of Planet No. 43 and then collide with it.

This is the later strategy of the human fleet in this mission, and it is also the last and most important strategy.

"For these three years, you lava beasts have just been hiding underground..." (End of Chapter)
